Food & Beverage Dairy & Cheese Beverage & Brewing CPG & Condiments Pulp & Paper Corrugated Converting
Pickle and condiment jar filling production line
Condiments & Pickles

From brine batch to
palletized case — scoped and priced.

Pickle, relish, hot sauce, and condiment producers need lines designed for viscous fills, glass jar handling, and USDA-compliant zones. Our Condiment & Pickle Line Package covers every component — batching, filling, pasteurization, CIP, controls, HVAC, and electrical — in one integrated fixed-price scope.

Cheese and dairy manufacturing facility
Dairy & Cheese

Greenfield or expansion —
one package, all seven disciplines.

Cheese and dairy facilities require refrigeration, CIP, specialized process controls, and USDA-compliant zoning to be designed together — not handed off between silos. Our Dairy Package integrates every discipline from vat room to dock in a single lump-sum scope.

Modern beverage bottling and filling line
Beverage & Brewing

Fill-to-pallet beverage lines
balanced for OEE ≥ 85%.

Ambient, hot-fill, carbonated, or craft — every beverage format has specific line balance requirements. Our Beverage Fill & Pack package pre-engineers filler, capper, labeler, case pack, palletizer, CIP, CO₂, glycol, and controls as a single scope at a fixed lump sum.

The difference

Engineering as a product.
Not a process.

Traditional engineering firms sell hours. PES sells outcomes — pre-engineered packages with defined scope, integrated disciplines, and fixed pricing. The work is done before you sign.

Traditional Approach
  • Custom scope written from scratch every project
  • Disciplines delivered in silos with handoff gaps
  • You carry all cost overrun risk
  • 2–6 weeks to receive a meaningful proposal
  • Utilities sized late, misaligned with process
  • Scope changes throughout design phase
PES Package Model
  • Pre-engineered scope packages by line type and capacity
  • All 7 disciplines integrated from day one
  • Fixed lump sum — cost overrun risk stays with PES
  • 72-hour intake-to-proposal turnaround
  • Utilities pre-sized and matched to process on day one
  • Locked scope — no change orders from discipline gaps
Why PES

Built for your schedule and budget.

Every package is pre-engineered around a defined production type — so you get a scoped proposal in 72 hours, a locked price before you commit, and a single team from concept to commissioning.

72-Hour Proposal

We match your project to a pre-engineered base package and deliver a scoped, priced proposal within 72 hours of intake — not 6 weeks.

Fixed Lump-Sum Price

You sign a fixed price before work begins. If our hours run long, that's our problem — not a change order. Your budget stays intact.

Faster to Production

Pre-engineered packages compress design timelines by eliminating rework between disciplines. Your line starts producing sooner.

One Accountable Team

Process, packaging, electrical, controls, HVAC, civil, and logistics engineering under one scope and one contract. No coordination gaps between firms.

Proven Scope Templates

Every package is based on successfully executed projects — not a blank-sheet estimate. Scope inclusions are battle-tested across dozens of similar facilities.

OEE-Targeted Design

Line packages are engineered to a target OEE from day one — not balanced after installation. You commission to a performance standard, not just a completion date.

Sample packages

Select. Configure. Deploy.

Every package is pre-engineered around a defined production capacity and facility type. Pick your starting point — we'll tune it to your site conditions.

Integrated disciplines

One scope.
Seven disciplines.

Every PES package is authored by a cross-functional team from day one — not assembled from silo deliverables after the fact. Utilities are pre-matched to process requirements before the first drawing is issued.

Process Engineering

CIP systems, pasteurization, evaporation, cooking, mixing, and product-specific process design for food, dairy, and beverage applications.

Packaging Engineering

Full line design from filler to dock — fill, seal, label, case pack, palletize — including AGV integration and line balance for target OEE.

Electrical Engineering

Power distribution, MCCs, single-line diagrams, lighting design, panel schedules, and NEC/NFPA-compliant facility electrical systems.

Controls & Automation

PLC/SCADA architecture, HMI design, MES integration, AGV traffic systems, and line-level automation specifications — fleet-agnostic.

HVAC & Utilities

Pre-sized HVAC packages, ammonia or Freon refrigeration, compressed air, steam, RO water, CO₂, and utility room design — matched to process load from day one.

Civil & Structural

Floor slab upgrades, equipment pads, mezzanines, structural steel, dock design, and facility expansion — sized to support equipment and utility loads.

Logistics Engineering

AGV fleet design and traffic engineering, AS/RS specification and integration, warehouse layout, dock flow, WMS/ERP connectivity, and material flow simulation.

Market platforms

One firm. Four focused markets.

Each market domain delivers the same integrated, fixed-price model — built around the specific standards, equipment, and regulatory requirements of that industry.
